Buc-ee's Pecan Brittle

If peanut brittle is the classic, pecan brittle is the Texas version. Pecans instead of peanuts, with brown sugar and butter holding it all together.

People search for it as Buc-ee's pecan brittle, Buc-ee's brittle, or Buc-ee's pecan candy.

Our take: it's the brittle for pecan people, and in Texas that's most of us; the pecan is the state tree, after all. It's great on a holiday cookie tray, crumbled over vanilla ice cream, or broken into shards on top of a pumpkin pie.

Honest notes: like any brittle, it's hard and crunchy, so go easy if you have dental work. Close the bag tight, because brittle turns tacky when the air is humid, and Texas air usually is. If you want to compare, the Peanut, Coconut Peanut and Jalapeño Peanut versions make a fun brittle flight for a party.
